4.Under no circumstances should this fireplace be modified. Parts removed for servicing should be replaced prior to operating this fireplace again.

5.Installation and any repairs to this fireplace must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or gas supplier. A professional service person should be contacted to inspect this fireplace annually. Make it a practice to have all of your gas fireplaces checked annually. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excess lint and dust from carpeting, bedding material, etc.

6.Control compartments, burners and air passages in this fireplace should be kept clean and free of dust and lint. Make sure the gas valve and pilot light are turned off before you attempt to clean this fireplace.

7.The venting system (chimney) of this fireplace should be checked at least once a year and if needed your venting system should be cleaned.

8.Keep the area around your fireplace clear of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapor and liquids. This fireplace should not be used as a drying rack for clothing, nor should Christmas stocking or decorations be hung in the area of it.

9.Under no circumstances should any solid fuels (wood, coal, paper or cardboard etc.) be used in this fireplace.

10.The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed in any way.

11.When fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or any combustible material other than wood, this fireplace

must be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the fireplace.

12.This fireplace requires adequate ventilation and combustion air to operate properly.

13.This fireplace must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid fuel burning fireplace.

14.When the fireplace is not in use it is recommended that the gas valve be left in the OFF position.

Proposition 65 Warning: Fuels used in gas, woodburning or oil fired appliances, and the products of combustion of such fuels, contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. California Health & Safety Code Sec. 25249.6

20010667

WARNING: Check with your electronics manufacturer before installing a television or other electronic device above this fireplace.

This appliance may be installed in an aftermarket permanently located, manufactured home or mobile home, where not prohibited by local codes.

This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indi-cated on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible for use with other gases, unless a certified kit is used.

IMPORTANT:

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY

Remove any plastic from trim parts before turning the fireplace ON.

It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine. It is not unusual for your CFM Corporation gas fireplace to give off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the manufacturing process.

Please ensure that your room is well ventilated

-open all windows.

It is recommended that you burn your fireplace for at least ten (10) hours the first time you use it. If the optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch in the “OFF” position during this time.

Mantels

The height that a combustible mantel is fitted above the fireplace is dependent on the depth of the mantel. This also applies to the distance between the mantel leg (if fitted) and the fireplace.

For the correct mounting height and widths, refer to Figures 4a, 4b and the Mantel Chart below.

The distances and reference points are not affected by the fitting of a bay window front trim kit.

Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at any height and width around the appliance. When using paint or lacquer, it must be heat resistant to prevent discoloration.

Hearth

A hearth is not mandatory, but is recommended for aesthetic purposes. We recommend a noncombustible hearth which projects out 12” (305 mm) or more from the front of the fireplace.

Cold climate installation recommendation:

When installing this unit against a non-in- sulated exterior wall or chase, it is mandatory that the outer walls be insulated to conform to applicable insulation codes.

Framing And Finishing

Check fireplace to make sure it is levelled and properly positioned.

To mount the appliance: Choose the location. DV360 (Fig. 5)

1.This unit comes with four (4) flanges pre-mounted on both sides of the fireplace to allow two different drywall thicknesses to be used. Flange “A” is for 1/2” drywall while flange “B“ is for 5/8” drywall.

2.Bend the desired flanges out 90° on both sides of the fireplace. Slide the fireplace into the framed opening until the flanges contact the front surfaces of the framing. Level the unit and secure it firmly in place.

DV580 (Fig. 5a)

1.Nailing flanges are supplied with the fireplace (found on the fireplace hearth). To level the box and secure it firmly in place, remove the nailing flanges from the hearth and install at the sides of the fireplace as shown in Figure 5a.

2.Screw through the slotted holes in the drywall strip and into pre-drilled holes in fireplace side. Measure from face of fireplace to the face of the drywall strip to confirm the final depth.

Final Finishing

Noncombustible materials such as brick or tile can be extended over the edges of the face of the fireplace.

Do not cover the window frame assembly, any vent, louvre assembly top or louvre assembly bottom. If a Trim Kit is to be installed, brick and tile will have to be installed flush with the side of this appliance.

For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m) in USA, installations must be in accordance with the current ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes having jurisdiction.

In Canada, please consult provincial and/or local authorities having jurisdiction for installations at elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m).

Gas Line Installation

When purging gas line the front glass must be removed.

The gas pipeline can be brought in through the right side of the appliance. Knockouts are provided at convenient locations to allow for the gas pipe installation and testing of any gas connection.

The gas line connection can be made with properly tinned 3/8” copper tubing, 1/2” rigid pipe or an approved flex connector. Since some municipalities have additional local codes, it is always best to consult your local authority and the CSA-B149.1 installation codes.

For USA installations consult the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

FP297a

Fig. 6 Typical gas supply installation.

Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution applied with a brush no larger than 1” (25 mm). Never apply soap and water solution with a spray bottle. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.

The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.

The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8” test point up stream of the control.

When using copper or flex connector use only approved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so that the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. (Fig. 6) See the gas specifications for pressure details and ratings.

Remote ON/OFF Switch Installation

Do not wire the remote ON/OFF wall switch for this gas appliance into a 120v power supply.

1.Thread wire through the electrical knockout located on either side of the unit. Take care not to cut the wire or insulation on metal edges. Ensure the wire is secured and protected from possible damage. Run one end of the gas control valve and the other end to the conveniently located wall switch.

2.Attach the wire to the ON/OFF switch and install switch into receptacle box. Attach cover plate to switch.

3.Connect wiring to gas valve. (Fig. 7)

DV360/580 Series Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

General Venting

Your fireplace is approved to be vented either through the side wall, or vertical through the roof.

Only CFM Corporation venting components specifically approved and labelled for this fireplace may be used.

Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or siding.

Horizontal venting which incorporates the twist lock pipe must be installed on a level plane without an inclining or declining slope.

Horizontal venting which incorporates the use of flex venting shall have an inclining slope from the unit of 1” (25 mm) per 24” (610 mm).

There must not be any obstruction such as bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within 24” (610 mm) from the front of the termination hood.

Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termination area after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent termination area.

Location of Vent Termination

It is imperative the vent termination be located observing the minimum clearances as shown on following page.

General Information Assembling Vent Pipes

Canadian Installations

The venting system must be installed in accordance with the current CSA-B149.1 installation code.

USA Installations

The venting system must conform to local codes and/or the current National Fuel Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Only venting components manufactured by CFM Corporation may be used in Direct Vent systems.

Flex Vent Pipes

Before joining the flex vent pipe to the unit, apply a bead of high temperature sealant* (provided) to the 4” pipe exiting the fireplace. Secure flex vent piep in place with a hose clamp (provided).

*Be sure the flex pipe overlaps at least 1” (25mm) onto the collars of the fireplace and termination. If the termination has an internal bead, be sure to overlap and secure 1” (25 mm) past the bead.

* Be sure the vent is actually crushed before proceeding. Apply a tug to be sure the vent will not slip off the collars.

Repeat process with 7” flex vent pipe. The same procedure must be performed on the vent side.

Twist Lock Pipes

When using twist lock pipe it is not necessary to use sealant on the joints. The only areas of the venting system that need to be sealed with high temperature silicone sealant are the sliding joints of any telescopic vent section used in the system.

To join twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads of the male end with the grooves of the female end, twisting the pipe until the flange on the female end contacts external flange on the male end. It is recommended that you secure the joints with three (3) sheet metal screws, however, this is not mandatory with twist lock pipe. (Fig. 18)

To make it easier to assembly the joints, we suggest putting a lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male end of the twist lock pipe prior to assembly.

How to Use the Vent Graph

The Vent Graph should be read in conjunction with the following vent installation instructions to determine the relationship between the vertical and horizontal dimensions fo the vent system.

1.Determine the height of the center of the horizontal vent pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph (Fig. 19), locate the point intersecting with the slanted graph line.

2.From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to the bottom of the graph.

3.Select the indicated dimension, and position the fireplace in accordance with same.

EXAMPLE A:

If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 11’ (3.4m) the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall must not exceed 14’ (4.3m).

EXAMPLE B:

If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 7’ (2.1m), the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall must not exceed 8¹⁄’ (2.6m).

Rear Wall Vent Application

When installed as a rear vent unit this appliance may be vented directly to a termination located on the rear wall behind the appliance.

Only CFM Corporation venting components are approved to be used in these applications (See ‘Venting Components’ listed for different installation requirements).

The maximum horizontal distance between the rear of the appliance (or end of the transition elbow in a corner application) and the outside face of the rear wall is 20” (508mm). (Fig. 20, 21)

Only one 45° elbow is allowed in these installations.

Minimum clearances between vent pipe and combustible materials are as follows:

Top - 2” (51 mm) Sides - 1” (25 mm)

Bottom - 1” (25 mm)

Rear Wall Vent Installation

Twist Lock Pipe

Step 1

Locate and cut the vent opening in the wall.

For combustible walls first frame in opening. (Fig. 22)

NOTE: When using flex vent, the opening will have to be measured according to the 1” (25mm) rise in 24” (610mm) vertical run.

Combustible Walls: Cut a 10³⁄ ”H x 9³⁄ ” W (265 mm x 240 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as shown. (Fig. 22)

Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening should be 7¹⁄ ” (191mm) diameter.

Zero clearance sleeve is only required for combustible walls.

Step 2

Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve parts to proper length (Maximum 12” / 305 mm). Assemble sleeve to its maximum opening (10³⁄ ” x 9³ ”) and attach to firestop assembly. (Fig. 23)

Step 3

Measure the horizontal length requirement for the venting including a 2” (51 mm) overlap, i.e. from the elbow to the outside wall face plus 2” (51 mm). (Fig. 21)

Step 4

Install the 4” (102 mm) vent to the appliance collar and secure with 3 sheet metal screws. Install the 7” (178 mm) vent pipe to the appliance collar and secure with 3 sheet metal screws. It is not necessary to seal this connection. If a 45° elbow is being used attach the elbow to the appliance in the same manner then attach the venting to the elbow.

It is critical that there is no downward slope away from the appliance when con-

necting the vent or elbow.

Step 5

Guide the venting through the vent hole as you place the appliance in its installed position. Guide the 4” (102 mm) and 7” (178 mm) collar of the vent termination into the outer ends of the venting. Do not force the termination. If the vent pipes do not align with the

termination, remove and realign the venting at the appliance flue collars. (Fig. 24) Attach the termination to the wall as outlined in the instruction sheet supplied with the termination.

NOTE: There must be a 1/2” (13 mm) rise in a 12” (305 mm) length of flex vent.

Step 4

Assemble the flex vent to the collars on the termination as you did on the appliance.

FP1472

Fig. 26 There must be a 1/2” rise per foot length.

Vertical Sidewall Application

Since it is very important that the venting system maintain its balance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust, certain limitations as to vent configurations apply and must be strictly adhered to.

The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to determine the various dimensions allowable.

Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials is one inch (25 mm) on top, bottom and sides unless otherwise noted.

When vent termination exits through foundations less than 20” (508 mm) below siding outcrop, the vent pipe must flush up with the siding.

It is best to locate the fireplace in such a way that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.

The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent pipe from the flue collar of the fireplace (or the top of the Transition Elbow) to the face of the outer wall.

Horizontal plane means no vertical rise exists on this portion of the vent assembly.

When installing the appliance as a rear vent unit, the 90° or 45° Transition Elbow attached directly to the rear of the unit is NOT INCLUDED in the following criteria and calculations, and unless specifically mentioned should be ignored when calculating venting layouts.

The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall installation is three (3). (Fig. 27)

If a 90° elbow is fitted directly on top of the fireplace flange the maximum horizontal vent run before the termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914 mm). (Fig. 28)

If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run (level height maintained) the horizontal vent length is reduced by 36” (914 mm). (Fig. 29, 30) This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical rise. (Fig. 27)

Example: According to the vent graph (Page 14) the maximum horizontal vent length in a system with a 7¹⁄’ (2.3 m) rise is 20’ (6 m) and if a 90° elbow is required in the horizontal vent it must be reduced to 17’ (5.2 m).

The maximum number of 45° elbows permitted per side wall installation is two (2). These elbows can be installed in either the vertical or horizontal run.

For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run, the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18” (457 mm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows are installed on the vertical part of the vent system.

The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system is 270°. (Fig. 31)
